Title: Expletive on Amuesement Park USA Post by: Nothgual on October 03, 2013, 06:59:10 PM Hi!
This is my first new topic I've made. I've been a lurker for about two years. So if this isn't something that's topic worthy then I apologize. I'm wondering if anyone else has ever heard this. On Amusement Park USA, at around the 1:35 mark, the announcer voice seems to say something like "She's got the biggest a** in town" or "She's got the biggest a** around" in reference to Stella the Snakedancer. This happens as the voice is fading out so it's hard to make out. Am I dead wrong or do you hear this too?

It's a pun. Title: Re: Expletive on Amuesement Park USA Post by: Nothgual on October 03, 2013, 07:13:49 PM Oh. I hadn't realized that this had been discussed previously. I guess my search wasn't exhaustive enough.
I don't really get the pun. Title: Re: Expletive on Amuesement Park USA Post by: Rocky Raccoon on October 03, 2013, 07:15:51 PM Since when is "ass" considered an explicit word?

Title: Re: Expletive on Amuesement Park USA Post by: drbeachboy on October 03, 2013, 07:28:16 PM Since when is "ass" considered an explicit word? It was explicit for TV and recordings in 1965. Just like Brian telling Hal "Don't say puss". Or like the record company thinking the song I'm Gonna Hustle You was too risqué for 1963.

I guess my search wasn't exhaustive enough. I don't really get the pun. It's a pun because he says asp but a person could mistake it for ass, as indeed you did. Title: Re: Expletive on Amuesement Park USA Post by: Lonely Summer on October 05, 2013, 09:50:20 AM I never noticed it, but if I had....well, I had no idea what an asp is.

I don't really get the pun. It's a pun because he says asp but a person could mistake it for ass, as indeed you did. Yes, and I always imagined Hal's voice abruptly cutting off the way it does is Brian's joke. Sort of an "oops, he said a bad word" thing.

Who? I guess this one went straight to DVD… |
